IPMI fencing involves the instance interacting with the IPMI device and 
telling it to power-cycle/reset/whatever the target node.  It waits for 
a confirmation, then tells the cluster SW the fencing operation was 
successful.  If the instance is running on the same node, it will be 
blown away when the node is reset.
